Paul Morris: President
Paul started PCM Marketing in January of 1989 after working as a professional audio sales representative since 1984. Paul is active as a field representative in addition to his duties as the principal of PCM marketing. He started in the industry manufacturing speaker cabinets in 1968; gravitating to retail sales of musical instruments and pro audio in 1972. In 1974 Paul opened his own successful retail business, Primo Music in Walnut Creek, California. In 1980 Primo was sold to Leo's Pro Audio as Paul pursued a career playing guitar professionally. During this time Paul also worked with Larry Thomas at a then fledgling Guitar Center, San Francisco. In 1984 Paul took a position with L.P. Marketing and successfully grew the Pro Audio part of their impressive line list that included Shure, Otari and Soundcraft. PCM Marketing, since 1989, has established a reputation of strong dealer relationships and excellent sales and marketing services for our manufacturers and to our dealers.

With thirty years in the music and audio business, Alan Thiele brings experience, enthusiasm and professionalism to his current position as a factory field representative. Studying music at the University of California Berkeley and at California State University at Hayward, Alan's professional music career spans three decades, and continues to the present. Included is a good deal of studio experience and work as a music instructor. Retiring from the life of a full time musician in the mid-eighties, Alan began a parallel career in sales. Working in the consumer audio/video arena, he found that he had a talent and love for selling. While managing the A/V department for a Bay Area retailer, he came to the notice of Paul Morris in 1991, who offered him a job in the professional audio field with PCM Marketing. It has been an exciting and successful merging of all his previous abilities, augmented by the excellent sales and product training offered by the companies that PCM marketing has been proud to represent, such as Shure, Mackie, Bose and Crown.
